Open Source Catalogue

Building the simplest way to contribute to science.

A unified, public catalogue of clinical trials, registries, databases, and programs where people contribute their own data or samples—including paid, donation, and volunteer options.

The Challenge

Many programs already exist—but without shared infrastructure, it's hard for people to navigate the full landscape. We believe everyone benefits when information is unified and accessible.

Scattered Landscape

Registries, donation portals, directories, databases, and services all exist independently—spanning data types from genomes and clinical trials to wearables and microbiome donations—making it hard for anyone to see the full picture.

Geographic Complexity

Understanding where an opportunity is available—whether globally or in a specific country—often takes effort. A simple, normalized view would help everyone.

Missing Context

Details like the nature of an organization—academic, non-profit, government, or commercial—its location, and compensation structure are valuable but not always easy to find or compare.

No Shared Catalogue

There is no standardized, open catalogue that describes all these programs in one place—with structured, machine-readable information that anyone can access, reuse, and build upon.

Our Solution: A Unified, Open Catalogue

By standardizing descriptions—normalizing country, data types, organization, and compensation—we make discovering and comparing opportunities frictionless.

A clear, structured catalogue helps people find the right programs, helps researchers gain visibility, and makes science participatory for everyone.

An Open Dataset for Everyone

We believe science data should be free. Unlike closed platforms, our entire catalogue is available as an Open Dataset published under the CC0 1.0 Universal license (Public Domain).

  • Downloadable: Access the full dataset in multiple structured formats (JSON, CSV, Markdown) directly from our Data Portal.
  • No Restrictions: Researchers, platforms, and AI systems can use, modify, and distribute the data without asking permission.
  • Community Verified: Data is continuously vetted and expanded through public GitHub contributions.
  • Wikidata Aligned: Each resource is mapped to Wikidata QIDs, making the dataset interoperable with the global knowledge graph.

Who This Empowers

An open catalogue benefits everyone. We bring together the information that helps people find the right programs and helps programs find the right people.

Individuals & Communities

Browse opportunities by location, data type, and interest—from volunteer participation to paid compensation.

Researchers & Clinicians

Gain visibility for your study. A structured, open catalogue makes it easier for potential participants to discover your program.

Platforms & Innovators

Increase discoverability by being listed alongside other programs in a standardized, open, and machine-readable catalogue.

Academic & Public Institutions

Gain visibility for your programs in a comprehensive catalogue accessible across geographic boundaries.

Our Core Principles

Science belongs to everyone. We are built on foundations of transparency, access, and community.

Radically Open

Dataset (CC0 1.0), content (CC BY-SA), and code (AGPL-3) are openly licensed.

Community-Driven

A collaborative ecosystem welcoming contributions from a global base.

Accessible

Built for everyone. Maintained with a perfect Lighthouse Accessibility score.

AI-Ready

Open data (CC0), open-source code, and an llms.txt file make the catalogue fully accessible to AI systems and LLMs.

The Roadmap Ahead

We are continuously iterating to expand our reach and impact.

Phase 1

Trusted Central Hub

Becoming the go-to reference for citizens, researchers, academia, and public institutions.

Phase 2

Personalized Alerts

Rollout of tailored newsletter updates based on country, data-type preference, and compensation models.

Phase 3

Broadening Citizen Science

Expanding beyond personal data to environmental data collection, image classification, and crowd-sourced field research.

Phase 4

Multi-Language Integration

Translating the catalogue natively so science is universally accessible regardless of spoken language.
